She’s a horrible actress……………not that much of a singer either but her songs are catchy

stan

Yes! Get it, gurl!

Taylor is NOT an actress. Any film with her in it will have to stink.

stan

jd- every film connected to her has been a huge box-office success. No wonder they are after her. Plus she looks like Joni (kinda) and they are both singer-songwriters. This could turn out to be very interesting. First big drama role. That will be the real judge of her acting chops. Her previous roles have been too simplistic/short to give a fair judgement.

Oh good lord, this is about as bad as a few years ago when the rumors circled that maybe Britney Spears might be playing Janis Joplin. Talk about a slap in the face to Janis, and now a slap in the face to Joni.

Maybe Jake can help her out??

Jennica Panettiere

Jared, April Fools was 3 weeks ago. This news is like… a nightmare except it’s not. Please let it be a rumor!

Amanda

Oh hell no. She better not play my Joni.

sj

OMG NOOOOOOOOO PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE!!! WTF!!

The woman deserves so much better :(

@-B-:
You’ve got to be kidding – Janis Joplin was a huge stoner – drugged up all the time and looked filthy. Britney is the one that would have done herself a dis-service playing that part.

Taylor would be an asset in this film. So sick of thye negative jerks ragging on her. Lots of juealous people out there. Taylor was great in Valentines Day – she was supposed to be a “valleyt girl” and she played is great. Like Stan said – everything Taylor is attached to turns to gold.

Dave Franco

Blah! Blah! Another publicity stunt for Swift and the movie. She WILL not get this role.

@cam she was soooo bad in Valentines Day , I cringed every time she opened her mouth , an actress she is NOT….

Taylor DOES have the look to play the legendary Canadian singer, Joni Mitchell AND she is a singer, so the main ingredients are there. At her tender age she’s not about to give an Oscar winning performance, so lets not be too hard on her acting skills. If she sings and looks the part, that’s great! She has my vote.

Taylor is perfect for this!!!!!!!!!!

Way to ruin a potentially good movie. Joni Mitchell is an icon, a one of a kind singer and a VERY strong opinionated, even difficult person. She is not an ingenue chippy! Plus this girl cannot act. Hire an actress please! There are plenty that sing better then Swift anyway.

Creed

Is this a joke? The fact that they would even CONSIDER to have her audition to against Alison Pill is a joke. She couldn’t even play herself in valentines day. That is such an insult to Joni Mitchell, she should be played only by a real actress, like (preferably) Alison Pill or Jennifer Lawrence

Hell No! Where is Jennifer Lawrence & also the Olsen’s little sister they have the Grit & Talent a Actress would nerf to play these Iconic & Legendary Women…Taylor Swift no.I like her poppy country songs but that’s it.Hollywood cam be so disrespectful sometimes.

I can’t wait for this Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift collaboration, Taylor is my inspiration. Her voice is magic and I think they’ll blend and harmonize PERFECTLY. :)

Keep bring her down ppl, if she’s taking this role she will take it seriously! and she will go just fine!!

you guys haters, always look at her in “negative” ways, but it’s alright, she keeps on proving herself that she is Great Artist

mmmm the one on Valentine’s Day lol you counted that? her role is supposed to be “ditzy” girl and stupid and all, she nailed it! and that was just like super short appearance and it’s comedy romantic movie not “serious” movie

NOOOOOOOOOOO say it isn’t so……… i LOVE joni so much, but i will totally NOT GO SEE THIS. i love the book and would be totally excited if it were anyone BUT taylor swift. can’t they find someone who can actually sing & act to play the role?????????? i’d rather go see three unknown women than taylor swift and ANYBODY! NOOOOOOOOOO
